First of all i would like to thank Assassyn for his help in my decision of a computer, I as well used my ADC 20% off today as I purchased a 1.25ghz 15.2" Albook with 512megs ram(which will be gutted on arrival and be replaced with (2) 1 gig memory sticks, max it out of course) a 80 gig 5400rpm drive, superdrive, and I thought as I was shopping that maybe I could pawn off my old ipod on my gf and get the new 40 gig ipod, which I did! Sold my old 10 gig second gen ipod to her for $150, not bad on both sides, and I got that 40 gig for $100 off. I also threw one of those HP 5650 printers in there for $150 with $99 rebate. Needless to say I am one happy camper. I did not purchase a base station nor did I upgrade my ram through apple.
Assassyn and anyone else, whats the best wireless router out there for my extreme card, and where is the best place to get quality ram for my new albook, as I would like to place those orders now so when it arrives it will be all installation and be up and running. I will even take a snapshot of the get info screen so you guys can see it say 2gigs Memory. Congrats to all those others as well that purchased today!

Besides the price would anyone recommend it? Assassyn I want your opinion! How would you config the 15.2 as well, the ram is bullshit, 2 256 meg chips to fill both sides, I think I am going to get it like that and then buy 1 1 gig sticks for a total of 2 gigs and sell the stock ones apple will send me. I am using my 20% ADC for this order, anything else I should pick up? Assassyn let me know what you think.
Peace

Haha, congrats man, and don't worry, I did this exact same thing when I ordered my first Mac back in Feb. '03, a Rev. A 17" PB (since sold it). I know how excited you must be...I think you made a smart move by avoiding the Apple AE Base Station.
Basically any current Wireless Router will do the trick...I happen to like this one made by Linksys. You may wanna visit the "Networking" Forum for better advice in this area.

Interestingly, my girlfriend doesn't charge me for sex. However, my wife certainly does!
I've been using the Linksys 54g and loving it. More than adequate range for my needs throughout my home and backyard.
